yay applying for senior role at microsoft ! (i quit after a day horrified from the code)
pondering the ORM
there’s a huge overlap, i transitioned my journal into PKMS. but i still refer to it as my ‘diary’ as at the end of the day the goal is to write everyday’s everything there. the difference is why i write it, previously i used notes as a diary and wrote things to just reflect on the day and then never look at it again. now 5 years later, i write with the intention of linking it to events and things i will be looking at often. like ‘i went jogging today’ where i take a look at ‘jogging’ through the entire journal ever so often to see how things are going there (though my goal is to figure out how to make automatic graphs from these kind of things as well).
the bigger difference overtime has been that i eventually merged everything i wrote anywhere into one single linked thing (i use logseq). so notes about work? notes about this random website or pdf? rules and regulation for a thing i do? essays i write? all are interlinked into a single place. the question goes, is this better? and the answer is yes. But I’ve yet to add all the years and years long stuff i wrote in so many places into it, im glad that future me will have most of my stuff from now on in one place but current me is stressed to find every note i wrote in random apps to paste it into logseq
u can blame me randomly coming across OOP acronym on wiki. and I have to make it OOPS
imma be real i had no idea SQL and OOP were connected in any way. so this is nice to learn
Yea I think the conversation is far drifted from the original French slave question. To conclude that, if the slaves were taken to France then they would’ve been French after a while (nuance needed but Im tired x) ). But since they were mostly colonized in place they were slaves doing coffee farming for French owners.
migrations may have been common but ending most of the natives to take their place was not. Even when it did happen it wasnt to the scale of what america is an example of.
as for questions about ‘when/if invaders become part of or the nation’ and ‘if and when should other nations intrude’, im not well versed enough to discuss or answer them specifically in their generalized nature.
also i dont agree with the idea of nations but unsure what word to use. ‘natives’ seems worse to be used here. nation works in the cases of french and US colonies though.
yes that is true, but my intent for the joke was related to enslaved colonies than slaves brought to the nation of France. So it’s more like French were there invading and colonizing another nation instead of trafficking people to their nation.
Though the question gets more nuanced when you consider some slaves were imported or shuffled around in different colonies, and along comes the question of nationhood that I still dont have an answer for: “If someone just takes over a land for long enough, does it make it that person’s land?” (i.e. US).
french’s slaves did that, not enslaved french
thank u, i write jokes as i learn random things also i see u were inspired by the bojack instagram post
while i dont have issues with GMOs. This isn’t really an example of that as its only selectively bred and then farming practices are used (like fertilizers and preventing pollination) to get seedless fruits. From what I understand, seedlessness in many fruits is done by farming work and not GMO-ing them.
quick reading through wikipedia gave some context, but nothing specific to why an egg. i think the reasoning is simply that egg is more commonly known than a cocom. which i know somewhat sounds ridiculous but im thinking that based on that egg is a very common food ingredient and commonly seen by most people (sometimes daily)* (*atleast like in developed places i’d assume). while seeing a cocom is gonna be rare to uncommon for most people at least to the scale of eggs.
secondly, with metaphors already existing like ‘coming out of your shell’. an egg would socially make more sense (easier to connect to the metaphors that already exist). so egg cracking -> coming out of your shell would be easier to presume and understand the reference then something unfamiliar or relatively uncommon. that is not to say that the metaphor of caterpillar to a butterfly isn’t common, but egg checks a lot of other ‘common’ checks here, so stastically would be used as the main metaphor more commonly. (though to note im making up what counts as important boxes and statistics here, along with what the stats are according to what i know and not any real data to link; so who knows u know)
thirdly, egg could’ve just been the luckier metaphor
community driven (initially), a mess but still functional compared to “better” version, forever modifyable by the community unlike corporate network. mess to love (so yes what u said)

what killed the internet is information overload. in many way no one can have a private or closed space. twitter for example you are bombarded with everyone’s thought on everything and before long you have a lot of information about things you dont care about, and no way to engage properly with just one of those things. you can be vulnerable on the internet, but in a mostly public and algorithmic internet, its gonna be exposed to so many people who will hate that.
u misunderstand my friend, i mean hornet from hollow knight
